I travelled around Canada during winter and spotted some of the coolest spots for skiing and snowboarding. As I love interesting sports activities, I just fell in love with Toronto. In winter, Toronto remains covered with snow, most of the times. And the best thing is that in winter you will hardly see any tourist there. If you love extreme cold weather, then you will surely enjoy in Toronto

I flew to Toronto on a business trip and thankfully it was summer. The weather was so delightful that I extended my stay there and went for sightseeing. I still feel lucky to have gotten that opportunity to roam around such a wonderful place like Toronto. I would all my friends to visit there at least once.

The smashing beauty of Toronto has wonder in its each street. Be it the sky-high buildings or the wonderful clear blue sky of the summer, Toronto must be in the list of travel destinations. The attractive spots like zoo and museums really mesmerized me. I am planning another trip to Canada and wish to pay a visit to one of its most beautiful cities.

I can say my summer trip at Toronto was the best trip ever! Get pepped up in the summer for all the fun you have missed last vacation and visit Toronto for the food, the hard hitting music or band performances at Adelaide Hall. Some unusually fantastic festivals like the annually celebrated; Summer Works Festival or the ‘Drive-in Movie’ theatre, your visit will be surprising you till the last day.

It was summer, and chilling in the waters was the plan, so beaches and volleyball were the major frolic activities we chose, but a night at the huge 65 foot boat made the cut! Toronto surprised me with an extraordinary romantic date at the 539 Queens Quay West. It’s a must visit for all the lovers.

When you have a pocket pinch and Toronto is your destination you must copy the local! Discover the city alone, isn’t that a fabulous fact to start with? Among the too many things I can suggest some. Go for a leisure walk at the Distillery District and shop from small stores. St. Lawrence Market is a must visit for cheap coffee and combo meals, surprising you with antique, by the local artisans.
